Damn it! Let’s smash the darkness together!

Chapter 1335 - 170: Sound Maiden’s Backhand

He shivered uncontrollably, feeling relieved but also a chill in his heart, secretly thinking it was over.

He heard a few gurgling, slick sounds, and the unusual feeling in his abdomen instantly dissipated. Although he was extremely reluctant in his heart, his body’s sensations could not be deceived.

It really felt great.

The cost of feeling great, however, was a heavy, wet lump sliding down his pant leg, dropping onto the smooth, clean floor with a crisp, loud bang.

"Pa!"

This sound immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding crowd.

Everyone stopped, curiously looking in the direction of Xu Shu, and quickly made way, leaving a small empty circle about 5 meters wide around him.

These people were male and female, young and old, behind masks of sheep, scorpions, horses, and cattle, were pairs of eyes, filled with intense curiosity, confusion, surprise, and fear, quietly watching Xu Shu.

Quietly watching.

This small section of the Star Tower hall fell into a nearly minute-long dead silence.

"Gur~"

Xu Shu closed his eyes, clenching his fists tightly.

Curse you, Star Tower! You’ve gone too far, ruining my reputation. Aren’t you afraid I’ll destroy you by drawing three legendaries right here?

You can’t do this! Damn it, you can’t do this ah ah ah ah!!!

His inner heart screamed in despair, but the situation was beyond remedy. Even though Xu Shu wished he could dig a hole and crawl into it, he had to accept reality.

The only solace he could find was perhaps the fact he wore a disguised mask, so no one could see his true face, right?

As he was thinking this, Xu Shu prepared to clean up after himself—at least he couldn’t pollute the environment, waste classification was his last insistence—when he noticed something was amiss in the atmosphere.

The contempt and ridicule he had expected did not come.

Instead, the people around him drew in sharp breaths, looking at him warily, as if he were some detestable evil figure.

The lady who had been particularly polite to him and was possibly splashed a bit, kindly spoke up with a very gentle voice, reminding, "Young man, why did you secretly bring an alien pet in here? It’s not allowed in the safe zone~"

Xu Shu: "What?"

What alien pet?

Isn’t what fell on the ground the questionnaire?

He belatedly looked carefully at his feet, and his expression froze.

What met his eyes was not some natural waste, but a soft, poisonous snake!

The snake was coiled into a lump, about as thick as two chopsticks, entirely white, crystal clear, with an alluring snake face like a beauty, giving a sense of cleanliness, naturalness, and being free of disease.

At the moment, its small mouth was slightly open, eyes glazed, flesh and blood badly charred, obviously having lost its life under the minor lightning strikes of the Star Tower.

"This is..."

Xu Shu’s gaze slightly tightened, a flood of long-forgotten memories surged to his mind, and he hurriedly reached out to grab this little snake, squeezing past a bystander who forgot to enter the transaction cabin because they were watching the show, quickly entering the cabin and slamming the door shut.

Gur—Hiss!

The mechanical steam whistle sounded, instantly cutting off the discussions outside.

Xu Shu cautiously examined the blob-like little white snake that was continuously dissolving and turned entirely to ashes, leaving nothing behind in less than thirty seconds.

After a while, he shook his hand and let out a long sigh of relief.

This little snake, although not exactly the same in shape, upon closer comparison, had an unmistakable resemblance of sixty or seventy percent to the "Big Black Snake Mother" once worshipped at the ruinous Penglai District’s Xinglong Manor.

The Snake Mother was named Da Hei, but was actually a white snake. Xu Shu had once let her learn what disaster could come from careless talk, and they had a pretty good relationship.

Later, when they encountered Shui Longyin, Tiao Tiao once mentioned that the Big Black Snake Mother had once squatted him in the wilderness, but they did not meet at the time, which is why Xu Shu didn’t care much about the Snake Mother.

Unfortunately, even though he didn’t think much of her, she apparently had always had him on her mind.

Moreover, Shui Longyin had said that the Snake Mother was the offspring of the Dead Sea’s Alien Species King, the Nine-Headed Flood Dragon, and her real name was ’Sound Maiden’.

Coincidentally, recently the Nine-Headed Flood Dragon had been wreaking havoc around D9 District...

As all these seemingly unrelated memories swiftly linked up in his mind, Xu Shu reached a conclusion.

"It seems, the female demigod I encountered before, was indeed the Snake Mother herself!"

"No wonder I felt familiar when I saw the Nine-Headed Flood Dragon online before. That explains it, turns out it was the cheap father-in-law."

"Humph, such a small matter from long ago, yet it still warrants chasing me down even after all this time. How despicable!"

"I merely insulted one of your divine avatars, is it really worth holding a grudge for this long? Such a petty person, no wonder the ancients said that only vile people and women are hard to breed, truly not deceiving me."

Xu Shu gritted his teeth in annoyance, while also feeling a bit fearful in his heart.

Merely exchanging a glance with her had allowed the Snake Mother to plant an avatar inside him.

Previously, he didn’t even have the slightest awareness of it!

Earlier he wronged the Star Tower—it was not volunteering to be a suppository, but had keenly detected the anomaly, using a method akin to extermination, neither harming Xu Shu nor removing the Snake Mother’s stealthy trick.

If not for this, letting the Snake Mother’s avatar continue to parasitize within him would have led to unimaginable consequences!

"Praise to Lie Zhenzi! The Star Tower is magnificent!"
